In pics: Kustom Nationals

EACH January while we are busy in Canberra at the Street Machine Summernats, the Kustom Nationals is also raging down at the Phillip Island race circuit.

This year’s event was the 12th in the line founded by the late John Katsanis and continued by his sons Dean and Luke. With a beach party, track cruising, pumping rockabilly and some live metal magic, the Kustom Nats are always a blast. Here’s a small sample of what went on this year.

About Us

Street Machine is Australia's number one modified car magazine, bringing V8-powered good times since 1981.

Our lifeblood is tough streeters, but our mission goes far beyond that, with event coverage from all over Australia and beyond, high-quality technical articles, fantastic history yarns and insane motorsports of almost every kind.

With the street machine, hot rod and custom scenes continuing to grow at a crazy rate, we are working harder than ever to shine a light on those creating mechanical masterpieces in their own sheds.
